* Remove non-IR codegen paths (#398)Tim Foley2018-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The basic change is simple: remove support for all code generation paths other than the IR. There is a lot of vestigial code left, but the main logic in `ast-legalize.*` is gone. Doing this breaks a *lot* of tests, for various reasons: - We can no longer guarantee exactly matching DXBC or SPIR-V output after things pass through out IR - Many builtins don't have matching versions defined for GLSL output via IR (even when they had versions defined via the earlier approach that worked with the AST) - A lot of code creates intermediate values of opaque types in the IR, which turn into opaque-type temporaries that aren't allowed (this breaks many GLSL tests, but also some HLSL) I implemented some small fixes for issues that I could get working in the time I had, but most of the above are larger than made sense to fix in this commit. For now I'm disabling the tests that cause problems, but we will need to make a concerted effort to get things working on this new substrate if we are going to make good on our goals.
* Add a compile-time loop construct to SlangTim Foley2017-07-18
The basic syntax is: $for(i in Range(0,99)) { /* stuff goes here */ } Note that the exact form is very restrictive. All that you are allowed to change is `i`, `0`, `99` or `/* stuff goes here */`. As a tiny bit of syntax sugar, the following should work: $for(i in Range(99)) { /* stuff goes here */ } Note that the range given is half-open (C++ iterator `[begin,end)` style). Both the beginning and end of the range must be compile-time constant expressions that Slang knows how to constant-fold. The implementation will basically generate code for `/* stuff goes here */` N times, once for each value in the half-open range. Each time, the variable `i` will be replaced with a different compile-time-constant expression. While I was working on a test case for this, I also found that our build of glslang had an issue with resource limits, so I fixed that. Clients will need to build a new glslang to use the fix.
